I have lived in different countries and can speak fluently English, French, German, Spanish, Mandarin while my mothertongue is Italian. You are welcome to write in any of those languages.
I am a sinologist with a newly found passion for opera and music. I sing in a choir and practise singing at home (at respectable hours ! And usually I do my practise when guests are not at home, but it might happen that I burst out singing for the time of shower or while cooking - it does not last long). I enjoy cooking very much and I am into biofood as much as my budget allows me ! I rather buying no meat than a cheap steak, but I do allow myself to eat meat outside from time to time. My meat consuption is though very low and I cook mostly vegetarian food.
I settled here in Berlin about three year ago, I am still discovering the city myself but I can give you a few tips on interesting things to do. I sometimes go hiking around Berlin with a group of people.
I work from home, using the word work for anything that requires discipline, constance and attention: paid work, music, blogging, studying languages or reading books and mindmapping them. At the same time I work part-time to make ends meet; my schedule always change, so check-in time is also flexible.

Hello! I had a very good experience staying in Laura's room and apartment! It was clean and warm & comfortable and quiet. The location was very easy to arrive and find; also with good directions from Laura... and the apartment is an easy 3 minute walk to underground subway/metro. The neighborhood had all the necessary things for comfort. Laura was always available to me by telephone. She is fluent in many languages and communication was very good.
Thank you Laura!

Laura was a very nice host and I can recommend her place for a visit in Berlin. She made sure I had all I needed, communication with her was easy and quick. She gave some good recommendations on places to eat and on how to get around in Berlin. The room was exactly as described, her flat was clean and I enjoyed staying at her home.

Laura and her family were very nice and good people. It was my pleasure to host her, despite a language barrier between myself and her relatives they were very warm to me. They left the apartment in top shape and I'd have them back anytime :)

A good friend who lives in London introduce me to Laura when she was moving to "My Barcelona", so she lived here for a while and she became part of my circle of friends. She easily got used to the city, making friends all over the place and having fun off course! she´s always ready for dancing and sharing a nice dinner....she´s definitely very social and interesting to talk to with her amazing talent for languages and well experienced traveller. I still cant get over how easy she can switch from a language to the next...simply amazing!!. I also introduced her to a danish girl who later became her flatmate and very good friend! so that tells a lot a bout Laura....she´s a great host, reliable fun friend, extremely smart and passionate about the things she loves! I am sure you will enjoy staying with such great host!

Laura hosted me on several occasions and I could not have wished for a better host.
She put a lot of effort in making my stay as pleasant as possible and always gave great advice on where to go and what to see. Her place is always clean and cozy, with a lot of personality. She is smart, very well educated, passionate about the things she loves. She's reliable, friendly and a lot of fun. And last but not least, she's a great cook!
Highly recommend her as a host.

I can't imagine a better host than Laura. She hosted me some weeks last year and my stay couldn't have been more comfortable. An extremely polite girl, well travelled soul with tons to share. Maybe is her particular ability to realize when one is keen on talking and sharing or rather prefer to be alone: she is a perfect option if you want to enjoy your stay in Berlin. But I am being too superficial... Actually the main reason I would recommend Laura as a host is just 'cos she can cook great food!
